BACKGRROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0029] Field of Invention

[0030] Technical Field

[0031] This invention pertains to the drying of hair on the head in thecosmetology industry.

[0032] Having and owning a hair salon since 1991, almost 100% of thecomplaints were related to hair dryers and how hot the clients were dueto the heat generated to dry the hair. Constant complaints about havingto sit under “hot” hair dryers. Information gathered from independentsurveys taken at random from other salons and cosmetology schoolsrevealed the same.

1. Our claim is to incorporate a fan and or air condition compressorunit under the base portion of a hair dryer chair unit in which a fanand or air conditioner compressor is either connected directly under thebase part of a hair dryer base (seat) or cooled air is pumped throughthe base by an outside air conditioner source where the cool/cold airflows through the seat, back, arms and front bottom of the base of thehair dryer chair: Note: see drawing page 10—cool hot hair dryeroverview.
